James Dickson, Chairman & CEO, commented:
"I am pleased with the strong progress that we have made in the first half of
FY26. This comes despite a challenging UK and global macro backdrop and more
cautious investment behaviour ahead of the UK budget. Our growing pipeline,
resilient recurring revenues and robust cash generation continue to
demonstrate the effectiveness of our model.
Both divisions have delivered solid year-on-year progress, and the business
has remained focused on disciplined execution while managing the operational
friction created by the 2G transition and elongated customer planning cycles.
These factors have not altered the underlying business momentum, and our
outlook remains positive and unchanged.
With our strategic investments in AI, analytics, energy-efficiency solutions
and expansion in the USA and forecourts now translating into clear commercial
momentum, the Group is increasingly well positioned for sustained long-term
growth."
Sarah Bentham, CFO, commented:
"We have delivered a solid first-half performance supported by disciplined
cost control and an improving margin profile while continuing to invest in our
technology roadmap. The 1% improvement in gross margin and stronger cash
generation reflect the financial benefits of our business model and the
operational efficiencies implemented over the past year.
The early transition away from 2G has introduced some short-term operational
friction; however, it has not altered the Group's financial trajectory, and
our balance sheet remains strong. With increasing visibility from long-term,
recurring, subscription revenues and a healthy pipeline supporting second-half
activity, we remain confident in the financial outlook for H2 and beyond."
Chairman & CEO's Review
The Group has delivered a strong H1 performance with increased adjusted
profit, improved cash generation, and continued strengthening of our
underlying recurring revenue base. There have been headwinds created by a
challenging macroeconomic backdrop and cautious investment behaviour ahead of
the UK Autumn Budget; however, we are increasingly confident that the
business is well positioned to benefit from here.
Recurring revenues accounted for 84% of turnover, highlighting the predictable
and resilient nature of our long-term subscription model. Operational
efficiencies delivered a 1% improvement in gross margin, while adjusted
operating profit increased 10.4% year-on-year.
Across both divisions, customer engagement remains strong, and the volume and
quality of commercial opportunities continue to improve. The Group is trading
in line with Board expectations and has a robust pipeline which is expected to
underpin further progress into H2.
Operational Review
Smart Machines (Unattended Retail)
The division delivered a resilient performance in the first half, despite
temporary timing impacts from customer estate rationalisation and planning for
national connectivity transitions.
H1 performance:
· Turnover: £2.97m down £0.27m reflecting lost revenue from the
strategic withdrawal from the ERP provision to prioritise our device footprint
extension to drive future recurring income
· Operating Profit: Adjusted operating profit was down £0.07m to
£0.91m (H1 2025: £0.98m), as a direct result of our withdrawal from ERP
provision.
· Customer Activity: 52 new contracts and five renewals were signed
on three to five-year agreements, including new LRS clients such as Bannatyne,
and Goals, adding to our healthy pipeline
· Devices Footprint: total deployed devices increased by c1,000 to
36,957, with higher recurring value cashless devices now standing at over
26,000, accounting for 71% of our device footprint (H1 2025: 67%)
· Cashless Expansion: 2,700 new cashless devices were deployed, of
which 125 replaced existing 3G units. The net addition of 2,575 new devices
will benefit H2 recurring revenue and operating profit
· Telemetry Optimisation: The telemetry only estate dropped by 960
to 10,863 devices as large free vend coffee operations were rationalised
Impact of 2G Network Restrictions
In recent months following on from the closure of 3G networks, the UK's phased
withdrawal of 2G services-beginning with O2 restricting inbound roaming SIM
access from October 2025-continues to affect operators running legacy IoT
estates. Many unattended retail estates still contain ageing 2G-dependent
devices, creating a clear operational and commercial risk for operators as
network retirement progresses.
Whilst this has contributed to short-term delays and estate optimisation
decisions during H1 this structural move from 2G/3G to 4G LTE represents a
significant growth catalyst for Vianet, supported by:
· A proven and scalable 4G LTE upgrade pathway, already deployed at
pace
· SmartVend device management platform, critical during technology
transitions
· Strategic partnerships with Scobie Macintosh and Attenda
· Strong competitive wins, including conversion of competitor
estates driven by commercial pilots delivering +18% revenue uplift and 15%
lower transaction fees
· CPI's market exit, creating further market share gain opportunity
The Board expects network migration to remain a structural growth driver for
the division through to 2027.
Smart Zones (Hospitality)
The Hospitality division delivered growth in revenue, operating profit and
site installations, supported by renewed momentum across both the leased &
tenanted and managed pub segments.
In Hospitality, the transition from 2G to 4G requires engineer visits across a
significant number of pubs to upgrade devices. While this increased workload
may impact the timing of some customer activity, the migration will materially
improve estate reliability and connectivity resilience and is expected to
support future growth through long-term contract extensions.
H1 highlights:
· Turnover: up 5.6% to £4.7m, reflecting strong activity across
the estate
· Operating Profit: Adjusted UK operating profit rose 4% year on
year to £2.29m
· Contract Activity: 6 new long-term contracts and 3 major
renewals, including Star Pubs & Bars and Greene King
· New installations: up 58% YoY to 229 supported by the rollout of
the new Beverage Metrics platform across Inglenook, Marstons, Red Oak, and
Trust Inns, more than offsetting 210 pub disposals, taking UK estate up to
9,522 sites, with a further 40 sites for BBG
· Enersave: now installed in over 40 sites across three companies,
with growing interest as operators continue to manage sustained energy cost
pressures
· USA: momentum building, with losses reduced to £0.14m (H1 2025:
£0.25m) as our new Beverage Metrics platform and recently signed partnership
with Fintech accelerates commercial engagement
The BMI acquisition continues to materially strengthen Vianet's end-to-end
beverage technology and management capability, creating significant
opportunities with national hospitality chains in both the UK and the United
States.
Dividend
Reflecting confidence in the Group's strong cash generation and continued
earnings visibility, the Board announces an interim dividend of 0.4p, a 33%
increase on the prior year.
Outlook
The Group entered the second half of FY 2026 with a strengthened financial
position, robust recurring revenue base, and good commercial momentum. The
Company is trading in line with achieving full-year expectations, despite
cautious customer investment behaviour.
The Board is confident in delivering year-on-year growth and maintaining
long-term strategic momentum, anticipating further progress in H2 supported by
contract delivery, new installations, and strengthened liquidity providing the
flexibility to invest in growth priorities. In particular:
· Sustained Demand: The retirement of UK 2G and 3G networks is
expected to drive demand for upgrades and new multi-year contracts in
unattended retail, payments, and remote asset management, leveraging Vianet's
market-leading 4G LTE product suite
· Operational Growth: Expectations include continued H2 pipeline
growth and conversion, positive progression of UK/USA hospitality
opportunities, and further expansion of our telemetry and payment solutions in
new verticals
· Financial Confidence: Improved banking facilities support future
investment, underpinning the Board's confidence in long-term momentum

Notes to the interim report
1. Statutory information
The interim financial statements are neither audited nor reviewed and do not
constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the
Companies Act 2006.
The financial information for the year ended 31 March 2025 has been derived
from the published statutory accounts. A copy of the full accounts for that
period, on which the auditor issued an unmodified report that did not contain
statements under 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006, has been delivered
to the Registrar of Companies.
These interim financial statements will be posted to all shareholders and are
available from the registered office at One Surtees Way, Surtees Business
Park, Stockton on Tees, TS18 3HR or from our website at
www.vianetplc.com/investors.
2. Accounting policies
The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the AIM
Rules for Companies and on a basis consistent with the accounting policies and
methods of computation as published by the Group in its Annual Report for the
year ended 31 March 2025, which is available on the Group's website.
The Group has chosen not to adopt IAS 34 'Interim Financial Statements' in
preparing these interim financial statements and therefore the Interim
financial information is not in full compliance with International Financial
Reporting Standards.
Having considered current trading performance and more flexible bank
facilities following the facility renewals of June 2025, the Directors have a
reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources
to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Financial
forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonable possible changes and
sensitivities in future trading performance and the market value of the
Group's assets, have been prepared and show that the Group is expected to be
able to operate within the level of cash and existing banking facilities.
The Directors are confident that the Company will be able to meet its
liabilities as they fall due over the next 12 months and beyond. As a result,
this financial information has been prepared on a going concern basis.
3. Segmental information
An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business
activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses. The segment
operating results are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker
to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess
its performance. Vianet Group is analysed into to two trading segments
(defined below) being Smart Zones (mainly adopted in the leisure sector,
including USA (particularly in pubs and bars)) and Smart Machines (mainly
adopted in the vending sector (particularly in unattended retail vending
machines)) supported by Corporate/Technology & Stores costs.
The products/services offered by each operating segment are:
· Smart Zones (Hospitality): Data insight & actionable data
services, design, product development, sale and rental of fluid monitoring
equipment.
· Smart Machines (Unattended Retail): Data insight & actionable
data services, design product development, sale and rental of machine
monitoring and contactless payment equipment and services.
· Corporate/Technology: Centralised Group overheads along with
technology and stores related costs for the Group
The inter-segment sales are immaterial. Segment results, assets and
liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those
that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated assets and
liabilities comprise items such as cash and cash equivalents, certain
intangible assets, taxation, and borrowings. Segment capital expenditure is
the total cost incurred during the year to acquire segment assets that are
expected to be used for more than one period.

A tax charge provision has been made reflecting the full expected utilisation
of the brought forward trading losses in Vianet Group plc and the likely
movement in the deferred tax position.
The tax charge for March 2025 reflects the utilisation of brought forward
trading losses, which had previously been recognised as a deferred tax asset,
against the taxable profit for the period within Vianet Limited.
6. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable
to ordinary shareholders (profit of £229k) by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per share are calculated on the basis of profit for the
period after tax (H1 2025: profit for the period) divided by the weighted
average number of shares in issue in the year plus the weighted average number
of shares which would be issued if all the options granted were exercised.
The table below shows the earnings per share result.
